After seeing his mother off, Zhao Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the young woman curiously.
Since entering the cell, the woman just stood there quietly, without putting down the large package on her back.
He looked at the woman, and she was looking at him too.
The two of them just looked at each other.
Zhao Hao asked, "Where did my mother find you?"
The woman knelt slightly and bowed to him.
"My Lord, I am from Yue."
The woman's voice was very pleasant, just like her figure, slender and delicate.
Zhao Hao raised his eyebrows.
"Vietnamese girl?"
"Why did you come to Gan Country?"
"My Lord, I am originally from Ji County of Yue State, and my family is considered a prominent family."
"A year ago, my family suffered a great change. Only I and a maid were left. We fled to the country of Qian to save our lives."
Zhao Hao continued to ask: "How did my mother find you?"
The woman said, "We arrived in the capital a few months ago. My maid and I stayed at the Benevolent Hall. We taught the children there and earned a living. Madam went to the hall to donate, and that's how we got to know each other."
Zhao Hao smiled and said playfully, "And you agreed to help my Zhao family continue its bloodline?"
The woman smiled sadly when she heard this.
"We are floating on the sea, and our future is uncertain. How can we refuse?"
"Madam promised that she would not blame me even if I failed to conceive and would give me a stable life."
Zhao Hao nodded and immediately ordered: "Okay, help me clean up here first."
The woman put the large package behind her down in a dry place and bent down to pack it up.
Zhao Hao leaned his shoulders against the wall, crossed his arms over his chest, looked at the other person without saying a word, and did not ask the other person to take off the veil.
Although he still hasn't seen the other person's face, he can still be 100% sure that this is a woman over 90%.
Very good skin.
Good figure.
The waist is very thin.
The buttocks are round.
Long legs.
milk……
It is also quite large.
…
I was very efficient and brought everything he needed in no time.
Zhao Hao started working on it without saying anything.
He carefully weighed each item with a medicine scale, and then carefully mixed the charcoal, sulfur, and saltpeter powder and put them into a small wine jar.
Each small wine jar is tightly corked with a wooden stopper, leaving a fuse.
That's right, what he made was gunpowder.
Now, Gan State and Huang Man are fighting fiercely, and Gan State is at a disadvantage. Even Mubei City is in danger.
Offering gunpowder at this time would surely turn the entire battle situation around in an instant.
In this case, according to the Daqian law, the Queen would certainly pardon his death sentence.
However, just in case, even with the powerful weapon of gunpowder, we still have to give the Queen a way out.
Zhao Hao took out the pen and ink and placed them on the table one by one.
After a moment's deliberation, he formally wrote:
"Your subject, Zhao Hao, the official in charge of the Southern City Guards, kowtows in regret and remorse."
"Since the thirteenth day till now, I have been in the Heavenly Prison for nearly a full month."
"I feel ashamed and remorseful every day, and I feel ashamed to face my family, Your Majesty, and the people of Dagan."
"Thinking back to the founding of our country over 140 years ago, starting with Emperor Taizu, we have worked hard all the way, and the efforts of four generations have been passed down to Your Majesty, leading to the current situation of political stability and people's harmony, and unity of purpose."
"However, our Dagan is located in a place surrounded by enemies. The barbarians in the north are always eyeing us covetously. The barbarians in the south may seem to be peaceful, but they still have the intention to attack our Dagan."
“This is truly the time for all people to sacrifice their lives.”
"As the saying goes, every man has his share of responsibility for the fate of his country, let alone my humble family, which has been blessed by the emperor for generations and has enjoyed the salary of a great official."
"Whenever I think of this, I wish to die to thank Your Majesty and the world."
"However, I heard that the barbarians are at our borders, and Mubei City has fought many battles. Our Dagan has been at a disadvantage every time. Mubei City is in danger, and this is definitely not the time to die."
"Sui Chen, bearing the guilt in his heart, pondered over it and finally came up with a way to defeat the enemy."
"It's gunpowder!"
"I have already made the finished product and will give it to my father. Your Majesty can personally watch and test its power."
"Once my army is equipped with gunpowder, it will surely be able to sweep across the wilderness and unify the world."
"This is the last thing I will do for your majesty and for the great cause before I die."
"If there is an afterlife, I will still be a citizen of Dagan and a minister of Your Majesty."
“If there is an afterlife, I must be the first to worry about the world and the last to enjoy the world.”
"If there is an afterlife, I will look upon the world with an open eye and repay my country with a loyal heart."
"With my limited body, I will devote my life to the cause until my death."
"When a man is about to die, his words are good."
"When a bird is about to die, its cry is mournful."
"Heaven and earth can bear witness to my sincere heart."
"The burning intention can be expressed by the sun and the moon."
"If you can gain my trust, I, Hao, will be immortal even after my death."
It was only about five or six hundred words long. After writing it, Zhao Hao read it several times and was very satisfied.
He used every possible phrase to show his loyalty.
